Barco on the bench for Sevilla too. Early days but looking like a fair few poor loan placements again this season.

Decent full debut. We got a lot worse when he went off.

I thought Bart was partially at fault for their goal on Saturday, in that he made Havertz's choice for him. It would have been better for him to stay in his box and wait for Havertz to take a touch. However, Bart's save against Havertz in the second half was absolute quality, and I very much...

They’re excellent at what they do, but that doesn’t mean they don’t get one wrong every once in a while… Think it’s pretty patronising for you to imply we shouldn’t be debating this stuff.

I really can't fathom how anyone, including Leicester, could think Oliver Skipp is a better player than Billy Gilmour. And regarding Anderson, you mention that the Anderson fee 'represents potential', but Gilmour is less than 18 months older than Anderson. As with Anderson, Billy Gilmour will...

Probably the fact that we only got £12m for Billy Gilmour when he played 30 Premier League games last season and 8 games in the Europa League, and the likes of Scott Mctominay, Oliver Skipp, Sander Berge, and Elliot Anderson went for considerably more.

We’ve signed bang average players for more than we’ve sold Billy Gilmour. Terrible decision, Napoli have had our pants down.

Quite disappointed with that move, I really dislike Burnley and I don't think he'll be a nailed on starter for them.

€14m would be incredibly bad business, I just don't understand why we would accept that.

I'd be amazed if the fee was anything above £0 to be honest.

He didn't feature yesterday, because none of the starting XI from Saturday featured yesterday.

I think Hannibal is a CAM / #10, which is where Sarmiento has been playing in all the preseason games.

I wonder if we pulled the plug on the Burnley loan move when we saw they were signing Man Utd’s Hannibal Mejbri for £10m.

But that wasn’t my point- my point was that he did the defensive side of the game well yesterday, along with his busy normal self of picking up the ball and playing through the lines. You’re right though he did misplace some passes - but this is a player that had no preseason games and was...

If you want to look at the stats - Gilmour won the ball back with 3/3 tackles. For a player much derided for his poor defensive work he did that side of the game very well yesterday. And if we’re looking at the stats app, FotMob had Gilmour score higher than Milner yesterday too. Gilmour had...

I think you make a fair point of not wanting to take unnecessary risks, as with the squad that we have we really should be targeting a deep run in the cups. But for me this is a game that we need to start the likes of Webster, Igor, Baleba, Adingra, Ayari, Enciso, and Sarmiento.

I agree we shouldn't be playing our U21s, as they only drew to Crawley (and although Crawley were the better side they only won the 'bonus' point in the penalty shootout). However, there's a big difference between our U21s and the players on the bench yesterday and other first team players in...

You've been pretty vocal on here on how you don't rate Gilmour, but this is just silly.

You really don't think the team I posted is good enough to beat Crawley comfortably?! They're all first team players!

Verbruggen and Estupinan are back in training, right? If so this would be an ideal one to ease them back in. Also I think Rutter is cup tied. ------------Verbruggen--------- Lamptey--Webster--Igor--Estupinan -------------Baleba--------------- -------------Ayari---------------...
